40 Awesome Things to Share on Twitter Business Handle

Twitter website mentions that Twitter has 302 million monthly
active users and 500 million Tweets are sent per day! But even today, I very
frequently answer questions like “Does Twitter work for businesses?” or “What
can a business tweet about?” or “I don’t have time to be on Twitter – it’s for
people who have no work”…arghhh…

Anyway, I have made peace with such questions – because I think
these are simply because of the unawareness about the platform or the genuine
lack of knowledge as to how powerfully businesses can leverage Twitter to connect
and engage with prospects and customers.

In this post I am going to share few ideas which you can use on the
Twitter handle for your business –

Link to a YouTube or Vimeo video relevant to your niche

Link to a list of blogs which could be useful for your target audience

A special offer – just for Twitter followers

If there is a glitch in some platform, share it along with the
resolution (if you know it)

Connect two people, who you think will value the introductions

Ask a simple question which your followers will like to answer

A link to a new app/ tool you discovered

Review of a new app/ tool – tag the people who you think will
especially benefit from it

Inspiring, motivational and relevant quotes –humor works well too!

Link to an interesting presentation on SlideShare

A collation of interesting industry stats

Link to an interesting poll

time to create your own infographic)
